Today, on the eve of a new presidency, the blog world throws its shoes at the worst president in US history.
Rufus and I are participating on behalf of all those innocent people murdered at the hands of the war criminals who helmed our government for the last 8 years.
Obama’s on a fucking roll with all these conservative about-faces, now, isn’t he? It’s like he’ll do anything to kiss Conservative America’s ass. I never thought he was particularly liberal, and I’ve always been annoyed at how he promoted himself as the next great civil rights leader (original he is not). But when it came down to it, I voted for him over Hillary because I simply could not abide by her racist tactics. That’s not a president I want.
Then again, neither is Obama.
If casting my ballot for him hurt my soul in February, it’s going to feel like there’s a damn gun to my head come November. Why are we always forced to choose between Asshole and Bigger Asshole during presidential elections?
As a recovering Catholic turned devout atheist, it’s not often I say this: nuns kick ass.
Following Missouri’s proposal of (disenfranchising) new voter ID laws, (similar to Indiana’s), the Franciscan Sisters of Mary are protesting the laws that will make it more difficult for minorities and elderly to vote.
This comes after twelve Indiana nuns (all in their 80s and 90s) were recently turned away by a fellow Sister for lack of government-issued ID.
